The Case Study Of Vanitas Part 2 - What We Know So Far

On Aug. 6, the English-dubbed version of "The Case Study of Vanitas" arrived at Funimation's website , bringing the steampunk-styled supernatural mystery manga series to life for a whole new audience. The vampire -based anime, set in Paris of the 19th century, is very atmospheric, what with its airships, period clothing and blue-moon and crimson vampires. It starts with the young vampire Noé, who is asked by his teacher to go to Paris to look for the titular book. In an incident on the airship, he meets a girl named Amelia — who turns out to be a vampire named Florifel, who just needs her name returned to her — and blue-eyed Vanitas himself. Vanitas enlists his help in changing the "curse-bearing" vampires back to normal using the grimoire in question. 

"The Case Study of Vanitas" has aired 12 episodes of its split-cour season, which is normal for anime shows — but now leaves fans to wonder when Part 2 will happen, and what will happen going forward, since the series hasn't exactly concluded its plot. If you're one of the fans anxiously awaiting news of the second part of the first season, here's what we know so far.

When is the release date for The Case Study of Vanitas Part 2?

The @vanitas_anime Twitter account announced on Sept. 17 that the second cour (or quarter of a year) of "The Case Study of Vanitas" is coming in January 2022. This is good news, as it means fans won't have too long to wait:  Anime News and Facts is reporting that the 12 episodes in the second part of the split-cour series will air between Jan. 8 and March 26, 2022. It should be noted that these dates refer to the Japanese release, not the English one. 

However, English-speaking fans shouldn't experience too much of a delay. The initial Japanese run premiered on various channels starting July 2 ( via Anime News Network ), which means it was subtitled with the first episode dubbed by the time it released on Funimation a little over a month later. Comingsoon.com said that Funimation had released five dubbed episodes by September 17 (a paid subscription is required to access the dubbed versions of newer episodes). 

Hopefully, that means U.S. fans will be streaming at least a subtitled second part of Season 1 by springtime.

Who are the characters in The Case Study of Vanitas Part 2?

The main characters of the series include Noé Archiviste, played in the Japanese by Kaito Ishikawa, and Vanitas (not the original of the book), played by Natsuki Hanae. Supporting characters include Jeanne (Inori Minase), a vampire girl also called the "Hellfire Witch"; Luca (Shino Shimoji), a polite vampire boy ranking just below the queen, who is trying to save his brother; Dominique (Ai Kayano), the aristocratic daughter of the alien lord the Marquis de Sade; Veronica (Yoko Hikasa), Dominique's sister who hates humans; Ruthven (Toshiyuki Morikawa), Luca's uncle and the hero who brokered peace between humans and vampires. 

Others include Dante (Taro Kuichi), Johann (Koji Yusa), and Richie (Riho Kuma), Vanitas' information brokers, and Noé's unnamed teacher (Akira Ishida), the one who sent him to find the book. Vampire Naenia (Kaori Nazuka), vampire hunter Laurent (Kengo Kawanishi), Holy Knight Olivier (Tomoaki Maeno) and Noé's first friend Louis de Sade (Miyuri Shimabukuru) also appear. There's also the cat, Murr (Miyu Komaki). Not all have survived Season 1, though, so they won't necessarily appear in Part 2.

The English dub cast of the series includes Stephen Fu as Noe, Zeo Robinson as Vanitas, Marianne Bray as Murr, Ian Sinclair as Dante, and Hayden Daviau as Amelia. 

What is the plot of The Case Study of Vanitas Part 2?

As the first part of the first season ended, the Beast of Gévaudan has resurfaced, so Noé and Vanitas go to investigate sightings of it. The beast will likely figure largely in the events of the second part of the season, as will Vanitas' relationship with Noé. Viewers may also finally learn the intentions of the secret organization Charlatan because of the big reveal in the end-credits scene. As viewers know, Ruthven figures largely in the plotting that's been going on, and he has hypnotized Noé with Jeanne's unwitting help, which could all blow up in Part 2. Meanwhile, Roland is going through a crisis of faith because he has learned that not all vampires are bad, and the show will no doubt explore the ramifications of that.

"The Case Study of Vanitas" will feature 12 episodes in Season 1 Part 2, making up a total of 24 episodes in the first season. The anime has been rapidly catching up to the manga:  Monsters and Critics predicts that by the 24th episode, the anime will be up to Chapter 43 of the manga. The manga is expected to publish Chapter 61, which means season 2 might be a more difficult sell than the first.

Faustina (ファウスティナ, Fausutina ) is a character from Jun Mochizuki 's The Case Study of Vanitas . She is the Queen ( 女王 ( じょおう ) , Joō ) of all Vampirekind , and thus all Vampires are instinctively compelled to submit to her. In recent times she has been reclusive, hardly ever seen in public, though the exact reasons remain a mystery. [1]

Faustina is the first Vampire of the Crimson Moon to ever exist, having come into being immediately after the Babel Incident . She is currently out of commission and treated as functionally dead. The exact circumstances of how and why this had come to pass are as of yet uncertain, aside from the detail that the Queen's own Beastias had destroyed her corpse and believed her to be dead. [2]

However, Faustina is still active in the form of her Malnomen , Naenia , She Who Harbors Death ( 死を囲うもの ( ネーニア ) , Shi wo Kakou Mono ― Nēnia ). As Naenia, Faustina acts as a senseless creature which cares only about obtaining Vampires' True Names and corrupting them to spread Malnomen across the whole species. She does this under the command of the organization Charlatan , though once again the exact reasons why and circumstances of how are utterly unknown. It is only by way of intensively powerful interference with the World Formula can Faustina be restored to her true form. [3]

Appearance [ ]

Queen Faustina is a short, elegant woman with long streaming blonde hair. Her eyes are heavily lashed, with large red pupils. She is shown to be shining with radiance and light.

Personality [ ]

Due to her status as queen of the Vampires, Faustina holds a great amount of power. She exerts her influence over others without hesitation, not caring about the consequences.

Powers and Abilities [ ]

• Enhanced Speed, Strength, and Stamina
• World Formula Alteration - As a Vampire, Faustina is capable of altering the World Formula, though the exact extent of the abilities this presents are otherwise unknown.
• True Name Alteration - As Naenia, Faustina is capable of altering the true names of other Vampires, thus afflicting them with some form of Malnomen.
• Mind Manipulation - As Naenia, she can enter a vampire's mind, reading through their memories to convince them to give her their true names. In order to do this, Naenia can show both vampires and humans vivid visual and auditory hallucinations of their worst fears and greatest desires.

Relationships [ ]

Noé archiviste [ ].

Faustina sees Noé as a powerful but ultimately beatable plaything. Noé in turn despises Faustina for her torment and possession of Louis, which led to his death.

Luca Oriflamme [ ]

Luca is the head advisor to the Queen, and he seems to have at one point had a positive relationship with her, asking her for advice.

Chloé d'Apchier [ ]

Faustina sees Chloé as a plaything and a tool. Faustina initially believes that she has control over Chloé, but it is revealed that Chloé was merely using Faustina in order to hopefully trap and murder her. This trap fails and Faustina escapes Chloé’s grasp.

Coming soon!

Name: Naenia, Queen Faustina

Origin:   Vanitas no Shuki

Gender: Female

Age: over 200 years old

Classification: Malnomen

Powers and Abilities:

• Superhuman Physical Characteristics
• Creation & Memory Manipulation , with limited Existence Erasure ( Malnomen-Millie, theater of ice and snow, those stricken by this name are shut inside a sealed, snowy space created from their own memories. There little by little an endlessly repeating performance destroys their heart. Unless the curse-bearer rejects the theater of their own accord, the link can't be severed, and you'll end up being erased along with the space )
• Life Manipulation & Darkness Manipulation , with limited BFR ( Predateur The Shadow is a malnomen that when inflicted onto someone, it makes their shadow become physical and this shadow will then kill and swallow anything living into another dimension inside it until it's drained the last of the life force from the bearer killing them )
• Madness Manipulation (Type 3. With Dissonance, Naenia screams induce insanity in people and then causing the targets to also scream which causes others to be driven insane)

• Statistics Amplification (Can reinforce her body with the world formulas)
• Healing (All vampires have accelerated healing)
• Information Manipulation ( Type 2 - The World Formula is described as giving structure to all things in existence akin to information inside of a computer. To support this, how the Book of vanitas is able to interact with true names and other formulas as though they were information to be altered and outright is called an analytical engine (a computer that could perform any calculation set before it aka things in existence). Along with this, the Babel, an experiment to rewrite the world formula on a large scale rewrote the constitutive formulas for a lot of humans, rewrote flower's formulas and rewrote mineral's formulas )
